Here at Datacom, we connect people and technology in order to solve challenges, create opportunities and discover new possibilities for the communities we live in.
The nitty gritty
Datacom is committed to hiring, developing and promoting the best talent from a diverse range of backgrounds. We are local at heart, yet world-class in capability, we have over 6,500 people across our offices, and we generate an annual revenue of over $1.49 billion; this makes us one of Australasia's largest professional IT services companies. We have extensive expertise in operating data centres, providing IT services, software engineering and application management, as well as payroll and customer service design and operations; with this comes a long list of significant clients.
About the role
As a driven designer, you will be responsible for driving the creative direction of digital campaigns, leveraging your sound understanding of typography, layout, animation and design trends. You will be ready to develop your existing skills and work with our senior designers on a range of ambitious projects to produce impactful designs that capture and promote our purpose and vision.
You should be familiar with Adobe Photoshop, InDesign, XD and other graphic design and UI/UX applications. Following brand guidelines, juggling multiple jobs for various stakeholders throughout the business, and adapting to changing workloads will all come easily to you. From receiving a brief and understanding all project requirements, through to concept design and presentation, you will be able to effectively communicate your ideas and address feedback with ease.
Our designers work as part of a small marketing team, so there will be opportunity to help create as well as work within existing guidelines. There is huge scope to be involved in a range of projects from external, client-facing digital campaigns to events and brand projects.
